Abstract (en)
An operation control system 10 for a wind farm 1 having a plurality of wind turbines 100A-100C, is provided with: a remaining-lifetime estimation unit 14 for estimating remaining lifetime of a component of each of the wind turbines 100A-100C; a sales-income estimation unit 18 for estimating, for each of the wind turbines 100A-100C, an income from sales of electric power under a plurality of output control conditions; a maintenance-cost estimation unit 16 for estimating, for each of the wind turbines100A-100C, maintenance cost based on the remaining lifetime of the component under each of the plurality of power limit conditions; a power-limit-condition selection unit 22 for selecting, for each of the wind turbines 100A-100C, a power limit condition that maximizes income obtained from the wind farm 1, based on the income from sales of electric power and the maintenance cost estimated for each of the wind turbines 100A-100C under each of the power limit conditions; and an operation command unit 24 for sending an operation command to each of the wind turbines 100A-100C based on the selected power limit condition.
